Abstract

The invention provides a solid-state imaging device comprising a semiconductor substrate provided with an IT-CCD and a translucent member connected to the semiconductor substrate in order to have a gap opposite to a light receiving region of the IT-CCD. A connecting terminal is provided on a surface of the translucent member which is opposed to an attached surface of the semiconductor substrate, and the connecting terminal is electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate via a through hole provided in the translucent member.
